Chapter 1

Creation: The Beginning of God's Perfect Plan

In Genesis 1, God speaks the universe into existence, forming the earth, sky, and all living things. God saw that everything was good and in perfect harmony. Humanity was the
pinnacle of His creation. God's desire was for humans to live in relationship with Him, enjoying fellowship with Him and reflecting his glory throughout His creation.

"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth...So God created man in His own
image, in the image of God He created them." Genesis 1:1, 27

*These banners hang in our sanctuary and represent the grand narrative of God’s overarching plan of Salvation for the world. Creation, Fall, Redemption and Restoration are the four major themes or chapters of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Woven within them is the story of God’s love and His plan to redeem humanity and restore creation. They are a reminder of what the Bible is primarily about - the story of redemption - where we find ourselves in that story, and where the story is headed.

Chapter 2

Fall: The Breaking of God's Design

Adam and Eve, tempted by the serpent, disobeyed God's command and ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Sin entered the world through this act of disobedience and with it, came God's necessary judgment. Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden. This new home for Adam and Eve, however, was cursed with "thorns and thistles." Adam would toil and struggle to produce fruitful crops while working the land. What
once was effortless and gave him great satisfaction, would now be a frustrated labor.

"…cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the
ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return." Genesis 3:17-19

Chapter 3

Redemption: God's Rescue Mission

Throughout the Old Testament, God promises a Savior to restore what was lost in the garden. Jesus Christ, God's own son, came to earth as the ultimate sacrifice. His death on the cross paid the price for our sin and His resurrection brings new life. He wore on his head, the sign of the curse, a crown of thorns. Through Jesus,
humanity's broken relationship with God can be restored. Redemption is possible for all who repent of their sin, and trust in Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16

Chapter 4

Restoration: God's Plan to Redeem and Restore All of Creation

The book of Revelation includes a vision of a new heaven and a new earth where God dwells with His people forever. Sin, suffering and death will be no more and everything
will be made right. God says in Revelation 21:5, "Behold, I am making all things new." The future hope of all who put their trust in Jesus is the ultimate fulfillment of God's
redemptive plan, a restored relationship with God in a perfect, eternal world.

"For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel' and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord." 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (Rev. 21:1-5)

Isaiah 38

1 In those days, Hezekiah became mortally ill, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet came to him and said to him, “Thus says Yahweh: Put your house in order, for you are going to die, and not live.” 2 And Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to Yahweh. 3 And he said, “O Yahweh, remember that I have walked before you faithfully, with a whole heart, and I have done what is good in your eyes.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly. 4 Then the word of Yahweh came to Isaiah, saying, 5 “Go and say to Hezekiah, ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears; see, I am adding fifteen years to your days, 6 and I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will build a fence around this city.’ 7 And this will be the sign from Yahweh that Yahweh will do this thing that he has said: 8 ‘Look, I am about to turn back the shadow on the steps when the sun has gone down ten steps on the steps of Ahaz. I will turn back the sun ten steps on the steps which it has gone down.’”

9 A writing by Hezekiah, king of Judah, when he became sick and lived through his sickness:
10 I said: in the midst of my days I must go through the gates of Sheol,
I am deprived of the rest of my years.
11 I said: I will not see Yah Yah in the land of the living,
I will not look upon humanity with those who dwell in annihilation.
12 My dwelling is unmoored
and rolled away from me like a shepherd’s tent,
I have wound up my life as a weaver,
from the warp he shall cut me off,
from day to night you hand me over.
13 I kept calm until morning,
like a lion so he breaks all my bones,
from day to night you hand me over.
14 As a swift or a crane so I chirp,
I moan like a dove,
my eyes strain on high.
My Lord, I am oppressed -
stand surety for me!
15 What could I speak or say to him,
when he has done it?
I have been pushing on all my years,
despite the bitterness of my soul.
16 My Lord, you have been told of these things,
so give my spirit rest,
restore my health, and let me live!
17 See, the bitterness so bitter to me was for my health,
and you held back my soul from the pit of non-being,
for you cast all my sins behind your back.
18 For Sheol will not praise you -
will death hymn you?
Those who go down to the pit do not wait upon your kindness.
19 The living, it is the living who praises you, like me today,
father to sons makes known your faithfulness.
20 Yahweh shall save me,
and my harp-song we will play
all the days of our lives in the house of Yahweh.

21 Then Isaiah said “Let them take a fig cake and rub it on the sore, that he may live.” 22 And Hezekiah said, “What is the sign that I may go up to the house of Yahweh?”
